Blair Philips works on the front lines of a generational shift. As the fan club coordinator for veteran driver Dale Jarrett, whose 20-year career on NASCAR's premier series comes to an end this season, Philips is the one who takes all the phone calls and receives all the e-mails from faithful who don't want to see their hero go. They stem partly from a genuine affinity for Jarrett, a champion driver who cultivated a legion of followers with his genteel manner and North Carolina accent. But some also come from a very different place, one that has less to do with the pilot of the No. 44 car, and more to do with the sport he will soon leave behind.
